emilytheslayer and I went to see Whip It yesterday and it was a great movie. Both of us were thinking about wanting it on DVD before the movie was even half over. I'd go see it again in the theater. And it wasn't even just for all the Drew-Barrymore-aliciousness in the movie! It was an excellent movie in all aspects from what it chose to focus on to the acting to the soundtrack. I'll certainly be getting the soundtrack.
In addition, it isn't playing on many screens around here right now and we had a choice between Harvard Sq. and Danvers. We went to Danvers in hopes of getting a bigger screen and we did! Statium seating, 23 screen theater. I'll be going to more movies there, it is only around 1/2 an hour away.
